Best thing AU ever did was put the students in the floor seats.


We may have a small arena, but we really maximize the space we have perfectly

Capacity might only be just over 9k, but the way it's designed and built make it feel like twice that

Rupp Arena may be able to sit 20k plus, but the stands seems far away from the court and the crowd is quiet and subdued

Auburn Arena the stands are almost right up against the court, the fans seem like they're right on top of you (even the upper deck seems that way bc of how it's designed), and nearly the whole lower section is allocated for students most games so the crowd gets rowdy af and right in your ear too

When the lower bowl is on their feet it can get insanely loud (see against UofL last weekend).

But it’d be 100 times better if they built boxes for the blue hairs and moved students around the floor.

GEOMETRY is cool like that. Bigger areas feel bigger.
